In the complaint, the defendants are alleged to have violated certain
provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Specifically, the
complaint alleges, among other things, that defendants misrepresented
and/or failed to disclose that: a) Reviews on Yelp's website were not
all authentic "firsthand" reviews; b) Algorithms purportedly designed to
screen unreliable reviews did not comprehensively do so and the Company
allowed such unreliable reviews to remain prominent while the Company
tried to sell services designed to suppress negative reviews or make
them go away; and c) In light of the above, the representations
concerning the Company's current and future financial condition and
prospects, and the extent to which they were reliant upon undisclosed
business practices, did not have a reasonable basis. According to the
complaint, when the truth regarding Yelp's business practices came to
light, the Company's stock price dropped.
